Colostrum from Different Animal Species – A Product for Health Status Enhancement

Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca. Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2016
The first milk after birth is also known as colostrum. The composition of animal and human colostrum depends very much on different factors such as: animal species, animal breed and genetical characteristics, feeding program, diet.

Bovine colostrum and immune function after exercise [PDF]

, 2012
Strenuous and/or prolonged exercise causes transient perturbations in immune function. It is well accepted that this is one mechanism contributing to the higher occurrence of infection (e.g.

The effect of various heat-treatment methods on colostrum quality, health and performance of dairy calves

Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2020
To investigate the effect of feeding heat-treated colostrum at different duration on the health and performance, 48 Holstein calves were enrolled randomly into four treatment groups before first feeding and consumed untreated colostrum (H0, n = 12 ...

Changes in back fat thickness during late gestation predict colostrum yield in sows [PDF]

, 2013
Directing protein and energy sources towards lactation is crucial to optimise milk production in sows but how this influences colostrum yield (CY) remains unknown.

Short communication: Comparative estimation of colostrum quality by Brix refractometry in bovine, caprine, and ovine colostrum.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2020
Newborn ungulates depend on the timely supply of colostrum containing sufficient immunoglobulins to obtain passive immunity against disease. Brix refractometry enables a rapid on-farm estimation of colostrum quality and has been intensively studied in ...
